Agreed. I actually think its kinda worrisome for the Cavs that LeBron had to play at such a high level to win these games. It wasn't like the team as a whole crushed the Pacers.


It was a sweep though. I think at this point we are looking for problems with the Cavaliers. They swept their round 1 opponent and they will get a ton of time off.


Yeah the concern trolling is ridiculous. All of the teams the Cavs beat or will beat are going to be deemed sucky after we beat them. Be prepared.

Disappointed with the Pacers all series. Choked away Game 3 and played horrible defense throughout. I think they have to seriously consider trading George. This roster is going nowhere with him, might as well start a rebuild.

Just realized Cavs only had 11 assist in the game. Not sure who I'm more disappointed in....the Cavs for finishing a game with 11 assist or Indiana for losing to a team that only had 11 assist. Kyrie Irving 37 minutes, 25 shots, 0 assists....I know LeBron cant be too happy with that.

I'm probably more critical of Kyrie than any Cavs fan, but this was one of those games where people kept missing open shots. I wonder how many assists clanked off the rim.

I'd put my money on the Pacers vs Portland, but not vs Memphis. Either way, they'd still have the best player on those series which might give them an edge.
I do think McMillan sucked, but Cavs played waaaay better when they needed to, so although I can't say they flipped a switch, it might just be a dimmer halfway. They sure showed how they can be better than their RS record and games show.

Would you care for a prevision of how the next series will go for the Cavs? Since Raptors and Bucks would def stand a chance vs Portland or Memphis, I imagine you envision a, what, 7 game series? At least 6?

Milw wuld have 0 chance and a 4 game sweep....Tor can pose some problems w Ibaka at the 5 surrounded by Lowry, DD, Powell and Carroll/Patterson...this either takes Love or Thompson out of the game

Also, Aminu can contain PG...hes long and lanky...Nurkic wuld destroy their bigs...I think Lillard and CJ wuld avg 25+ game
